Abstract (en)

An induction cooking utensil (200) is constructed such that it cooks food within its chamber while maintaining a relatively cool outer surface (e.g., preferably an outer surface that is cool enough to pick up with one's bare hands). The cooking utensil includes an inner wall (210) that is made at least in part of an electrically conductive material and an outer wall (270) that is made at least in part of the electrically non-conductive material. A vacuum -sealed thermal insulator (250) is disposed within the gap (206) between the inner and outer walls within at least the bottom portion and spaced away from contact with the inner wall by a portion of the gap. The vacuum-sealed thermal insulator is comprised of a thermally resistant material (257) and a pair of sheets (256,258) enclosing the thermally resistant material in a vacuum.
